Bernard Parmegiani - Violostries - VINYL LP

Violostries (1963/64) Premiered and recorded in April 1965 at the Royan Festival - France, by Devy Erlih (violin) and Bernard Parmegiani (sound projection). InchViolostriesInch represents the intersection of several musical research directions, presented as two simultaneous dialogues composer/performer and instrument/orchestra. After a short introduction tutti very spatialized Inch1. Pulsion/MiroirsInch multiplied by itself, the violin is projected into the four corners of the sound space. Inch2. Jeu de cellulesInch concertante piece for violin and audio medium, the latter being made up of very tightly woven microsounds. Inch3. VégétalInch slow and invisible development following a continuous time, resulting from an internal and permanent processing of the matter. InchCapture éphémèreInch (1967, 1988 version) InchThis work was composed in four tracks in 1967 for quadraphonic diffusion. Remixed in stereo in 1988. Premiered at the Studio 105 of the Maison de la Radio, Paris, May 1967. Sounds - noises that circulate as time unfolds - continue to exist despite our recording them. Breaths, fluttering wings ephemeral microsonic sounds streaking space, sound scratches, landslides, bounces, vertigo of solid objects falling into an abyssal void, multiple snapshots forever frozen in their fall. As many symbols leave inside us the permanent trace of their ephemeral brushing against our ear. Someday, a desert, a sound, then never again... Somewhere, in my head and body something still resonates... resonance, what could be more ephemeral. InchLa Roue FerrisInch (1971) Premiered at the Festival des chantiers navals, Menton, on August 26, 1971. Sound projection Bernard Parmegiani. InchLa Roue FerrisInch (Ferris wheel) spins, merging with it's own resonance, stubbornly perpetuating it's variations. It only sketches a regularly evolving movement around a constant axis. Each
